How Does the OmoTrain Support Work?

The OmoTrain features a controlled-mobilisation system that has an active effect on the shoulder joint and includes an elastic support, straps and a shaped insert that can be positioned as required. It stabilises and guides the shoulder joint without significantly limiting movements. Compression and massaging effects stimulate the metabolism, while the elongated pad can be added by means of a Velcro system as treatment requires.

Is This Support Suitable for Osteoarthritis Relief?

Osteoarthritis can cause a great deal of pain to your shoulders, and any instability can exacerbate this pain further. The OmoTrain Shoulder Brace is an ideal support to relieve arthritic symptoms, providing compression and stabilisation that will help to alleviate pain while increasing stability.

Can the Bauerfeind OmoTrain Be Worn During Sports?

This support is ideal for getting back into sports and exercise after a prolonged period of time out due to injury. It will help to prevent further injury by keeping the joint centred, but may feel slightly restrictive during severe extensions, which is preferable for injury avoidance.

Can I Wear This Brace Following Shoulder Dislocation?

Since this brace stabilises the shoulder and helps to keep the joint in a centred position, it is an effective aid for preventing injury following recovery from a shoulder dislocation. It will help to alleviate pain by preventing painful circular and extending movements.

What Does the Removable Pressure Cushion Do?

The removable pressure cushion or pressure pad (pictured below), works to provide a beneficial intermittent compression massage to the soft tissues of the shoulder. The nubs and joint-cavity ridge produce a targeted effect on specific pain spots, helping to activate the metabolism and accelerate the reduction of pain and swelling. It can be attached to the support and positioned as and when required.

Can This Support Accelerate My Recovery?

The OmoTrain Shoulder Support provides the stability and pain relief that you need while you're getting back to your best, and accelerates the healing process. Perfect for shoulder pain following surgery or traumatic injury, and equally adept at relieving symptoms of osteoarthritis, this is one of the most versatile and effective shoulder supports available at Health and Care.

Is This Brace Comfortable?

Yes, the anatomically-contoured design of the support and open chest area make it one of the most comfortable shoulder supports to wear. Complete with soft materials and reduced compression at the edges, this support is designed to put comfort and pain-reduction first.

Will This Shoulder Brace Get Hot During Exercise?

This support is designed to stay cool during intense exercise, as the anatomically contoured compression knit is made with breathable material that won't restrict airflow. The chest-free design also helps to minimise heat retention, allowing your skin to breath to prevent moisture build-up and overheating.

Will This Support Work for Both Shoulders?

Yes, the Bauerfeind OmoTrain Shoulder Brace is an ambidextrous support, meaning it will work for either the left or right shoulder. It is available in seven sizes, ensuring you can get the support that best fits your shoulder.

Can This Support Prevent Shoulder Injury?

Yes, this brace is an excellent choice for those who are prone to shoulder injury, such as those who have recently recovered from an acute injury or operation. It allows for controlled mobilisation, which is ideal for reintroducing activity without allowing a full range of movement that could put vulnerable tendons and tissues at risk.

Is This Support Easy to Put On?

The Bauerfeind OmoTrain Shoulder Support is easy to put on and take off and is secured to the upper body by means of a soft strap. The breathable, anatomically contoured Train Active Knit adapts itself perfectly to the individual body shape, guarantees effective compression and offers excellent wearing comfort, even after hours of use. Optimal support is therefore provided for the healing process, pain is reduced and mobility improved.
